We are officially halfway there, with 1 out of 2 years under the belt. It's crazy that time went by that fast, I can't believe I'm already a year in. I also can't believe that by the end of this year, I'll be home. As I've said before, I have learned so much, and I'm not only grateful for every month that I've spent here, but I'm even more grateful that I still have a year left. I feel like I just got the hang of everything and still got a lot to learn. I'll try to make the best of this year! 2024 is gonna be one I'll always remember!
As for these past couple weeks, it's been fun. Training was a little difficult at first, but I'm getting the hang of it, and the area is starting to progress a little more each day. We're finding a ton every day. I still feel like we don't have enough people to teach. My Spanish is getting really good, too, mainly because I'm doing all the talking and work by myself now, which I actually kinda enjoy. I'd rather do everything than have a comp that doesn't let me do anything. Besides, in my first transfer I, too, was a young lad that didn't know anything at all either, so I don't blame him. We did say that starting this year I'll have him start taking some initiative in stuff like lessons and planning and finding and whatnot, so I'm excited to see him progress and grow as a missionary and a person.
Not too much happened these past couple weeks other than the crazy finding we did. Last Monday was Christmas, so Merry Christmas everyone, you're welcome. They put a couple movies on the mission drive for the day, so I got to watch Polar Express, and for the first time watching it in like 10 years, I enjoyed it. Also, last Monday and today we had to stay in all day instead of going out to work at 6 like we usually do, because it's a little dangerous around these parts during the holidays apparently, lots of borrachos.
